* Where you'll be working Coral Tree Family Service, North Ryde. What you'll be doing The Clinical School Program provides intensive,
year-long intervention for primary school aged children experiencing complex mental health difficulties across both home and school settings. Delivered in partnership with Arndell School, a specialist setting for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties, the program supports children to build emotional regulation, social skills, and improved family functioning. Children attend Arndell School four days per week and reintegrate into a less intensive school setting one day per week, gradually transitioning back to their home school over the course of the program. Mental Health Clinicians work closely with the Arndell School and Coral Tree's teams to support the wellbeing and mental health of children. They work directly with students to build social-emotional skills, enhance peer relationships, and support engagement in learning. Clinicians provide in-situ and individualised therapeutic interventions, collaborate closely with families, and liaise with schools and external services to ensure coordinated and consistent care. Working collaboratively with both families and educators, they contribute to a wraparound model of support that strengthens each child's capacity to function at home,
at school, and in the community. People of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander background are encouraged to apply. Candidates will need to meet the following criteria:
- Recognised qualifications as a Psychologist, Registered Nurse, or Occupational Therapist with current registration through the relevant Professional Board of the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, or eligibility for Membership for Social Workers with the AASW.
- Post qualification experience that demonstrates the ability to provide a range of mental health interventions to children with severe emotional and behavioural problems.
- Demonstrated ability to manage clients presenting with a range of challenging behaviours. Need more information? 2) For role related queries or questions contact Andrew Bartle on Andrew.
